Ten things you may not know about me
Nicked from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
irishredlass because I thought it would be a fun thing to do this morning. Also, teddyradiator, jenidralph and toblass were complaining about how quiet it is around here lately.
1. I was born in the Midwest and moved with my parents to five different states before I was five. They have pics of me in my nightie, sitting in a VW bus full of furniture, but I don't remember any of it.
2. I have worn every single hairstyle it is possible to have, except maybe a B-52.
3. I ran away from home once, and made it all the way to the river before turning back. It seemed like a long way, but it was probably less than a mile.
4. I'm introverted, though not overwhelmingly so, and can give a passable impression of an extrovert for brief periods.
5. I hate eggplant. I mean get-this-stuff-off-my-table hate.
6. I'm terrified of water over my head. I hate aquariums. I can't even walk near the wall of fish tanks at the pet store without breaking into a cold sweat.
7. I finally learned to drive when I was 24 because my boyfriend was tired of doing all the driving on road trips. He taught me, and did it well, but I was quite irresponsible for years.
8. I held something like 10-odd jobs throughout college. The saddest was running a nursery for a holy roller church, because I knew those precious little toddlers would soon be brainwashed.
9. My first dog was a Maltese. It had been running around the neighborhood for weeks, a stray that would not let itself be captured. At last it came to the doorstep, filthy, tired and hungry. She lived 14 years. I still miss her.
10. I came to fanfic in my mid-40s. I only like Harry Potter fanfic, and I couldn't tell you why.
Am I done? Darn, I was just getting started!

I got to fandom in my mid-40s, too. Maybe it's a form of midlife crisis?

You are totally holding out and I don't think it's fair.
